The Pitch - Crazy Joe Davola kicks Kramer in the head
The Little Kicks - Elaine Dances
The Andrea Doria - George uses the story of his life to appear like more of a victim than a guy who survived the Andrea Doria wreck (all to get an apartment)
The Opposite - George does the opposite and becomes successful, Elaine becomes a loser

Bizzaro World episode was awesome. But I also have a lot of love for the one where George was supposed to be a marine biologist. "The sea was angry that day, my friends..."

I can't remember any of the titles other than the obvious ones but I'd vote for the one where George leave his car at Yankee Stadium and the one where George pretends he is a marine biologist. Taking the golf ball from the whale is an all time classic bit.

All the episodes mentioned so far are hilarious. But if I have to choose one, not sure of this is the correct title, The Dinner Party gets my vote. It's the one where George with his gortex coat and Kramer go to the liquor store and Jerry and Elaine go to the bakery to buy the bobca (sp?).

My favorite is parts 1 & 2 of "The Keys". Which Elaine isn't even in...but I just LOVE those two epsiodes.

This is the 2-parter where Kramer goes to LA and gets arrested as a Serial Killer.

"I'm Free! 'Cause the murderer struck again!!!"

Favorite is probably The Contest.
Second Place: The Opposite

Strangely, I'll bet the single line of dialogue I repeat the most is from the mouth of the Bubble Boy: (and you have to say it just like him) "Not too good."

ditto here, but always preceeded with "How 'ya doing over there?" when I use it.

Interesting, the single line of dialogue I use most from that episode is "How 'bout taking your top off?"

"The Jimmy" episode can reduce me to tears when Mel Torme (the Velvet Fog) is singing "When You're Smiling" and Kramer joins in for the "...yooooooou!"

My fave scene is Jerry telling George about the "dirty talk" while at the diner, and as Jerry whispers to George, he squirts to mustard out....and later waves the white flag for Jerry to stop.

Pure genius. The other great scene, as previously mentioned, is the marine biologist story and the golf ball. "The sea was angry that day, my friends--like an old man trying to send back soup at a deli. (Jerry and Kramer look at each other)"

Elaine: "Mel Torme thinks Kramer's mentally challenged."

Jerry: "Well..."

Several other brilliant bits in that one:

Jerry: "Feel the need to curse a lot at the dentists's office?'

Kramer: "Oh, yeah...when he takes that needle out, I let the expletives fly!"

-and-

Jerry: "I'm damaged goods!"

Elaine: "Ehh...join the club."

*****

I have always loved The Movie. It's tightly written, and everyone gives in to their foibles. Kramer can't resist the hot dog from Papaya King and George can't resist the lure of Rochelle, Rochelle ("The Strange Tale Of A Young Girl's Erotic Journey From Milan To Minsk"), one of my favorite running jokes.

Theres' so many good ones it's hard to pick one out, so I wanted to mention The Chinese Woman since no one had so far.

I just love the interaction between George's parents, and Frank by himself.

"I have no eye for fashion!"

"Why(clap) didn't(clap) Jerry(clap) say(clap) hello(clap)!"

Festivus - every single part of that episode worked. Every character had a good storyline and had many great supporting characters. Plus, anything with Mr. Costanza and Krueger in the same episode is great.

I also like the one where Susan has a doll that looks like George's mom.

Finally someone mentioned the one where i was almost on the floor laughing...the doll that looks like George's mom. The ending was just priceless.
